Product description
Unravel the extraordinary histories of 60 flowers that shape our gardens. Have you ever wondered where your favourite garden flowers came from? Where their names derived? Or why some cultivars go in and out of favor? Every flower has a story and in A Short History of Flowers, Advolly Richmond guides you through the most intriguing, surprising, and enriching ones. For example, you’ll find stories of: The 18th‑century woman who disguised herself as a man to collect bougainvillea on a global voyage. The snowdrop that sparked Victorian mania. The daffodil rediscovered after centuries missing from cultivation. The lily of the valley that became Christian Dior’s lifelong lucky charm. The Californian poppy that travelled from Indigenous medicine to royal heraldry. Read more
